After failing to advance in the above divisions I decided to enter the "Open Weapons, £5 entry, winner takes all" event, not because I had any illusions of winning anything but because I just wanted some more fights.

4 - Open Weapons, me with double sticks vs huge dude with a shinai. I won the "Warrior Spirit" award for this one, largely for not dying I think. Apparently I won this fight.

(Apologies if the video looks a bit disjointed, there was a little bit of a sportsmanship fail at one point and I decided not to include it)

5 - Open Weapons Double Stick vs Double Stick. This is me vs my instructor and goes about as well as you'd expect :P
